Report: Rocket Hits Open Area in Gush Etzion

Reports are surfacing that a rocket fired by Gaza terrorists hit the Judea and Samaria city of Gush Etzion, just south of Jerusalem, Israeli police said on Friday, with the army reporting no injuries or damages.

"Preliminary information shows that a rocket fell in Gush Etzion in Judaea and Samaria and police are on their way over there," spokeswoman Luba Samri told AFP.

The army confirmed that a rocket fire from Gaza had landed "outside of Jerusalem" but would not specify further.
